"This gorgeous 2 year old angel makes us giddy with delight when we are with him. And the world responds in turn—people and other dogs love him as much as he loves them. He’s also a closet genius, or at least a closet star: While he pulls out of the shelter just enough to make you think, “Oh no, here we go again,” the second—and we mean the second—his four paws hit pavement and he knows he is out of that joint he skids to a halt, lines up to his walker’s knee, and never budges no matter our gait. Plus he does that thing that always makes us so delighted:
Looks up occasionally to make sure he’s doing what we are asking him to. That and so much more, he can rest assured, as he walked on a slack leash to the park. Then, he came and hung out with us while we tended to some other stuff in the shelter, oblivious to the barking and various dramas. “What a big sweetie!”
was not an uncommon refrain to be heard from people who met him in the shelter, and they know from whence they speak. This striking looking, brown-and-white 55 pounder did beautifully on his SAFER, showing his large heart with dogs, humans, and toys, but got a 3 on food. We are very sure that is because his days as a stray have left him about 5 pounds underweight. Now that he has been in the shelter a couple of days and has been eating regularly, he takes treats so gently from hands that they might be precious jewels. We are absolutely besotted by Chester, and wish we could bring him into our own home. Since that isn’t possible, please consider bringing him into yours. You would be the biggest winner in the equation, we promise. "
